Today's episode is with JP Baric, the founder and CEO of the Mining Store, (https://miningstore.com), a tech company that
designs, builds and operates large scale Bitcoin mining data
centres. He also bought bitcoin when it was $70 in 2013...
We got into the Byzantine General's problem, mining in special economic zones, and even touched on JP's appearance on The Dr Phil Show - indeed.
